Sword & Buckler

Instruc­tor: Michael Fair­banks
Wednes­days, 8:00pm to 9:00pm

The Tower Fecht­buch, also known as Tower of Lon­don man­u­script i.33, is Europe’s old­est known fenc­ing man­ual. Writ­ten by a German-speaking priest circa 1300 in eccle­si­as­ti­cal Latin, the man­u­script por­trays a sophis­ti­cated sys­tem of sword & buck­ler defense for unar­mored com­bat­ants. Con­tact the instruc­tor for details.

This class meets at the Phin­ney Neigh­bor­hood Cen­ter.
